Been buying stuff in HuaQiangBei for people for an upcoming video. This 1 meter long Thunderbolt 4 cable I found in Shenzhen is 120rmb or $16.44usd. It’s got some Chinese controller but is “Intel certified”. Closest direct comp on Amazon is $40.

@rjackal it’s a sick tool! Whenever I pull it out in the stalls the sellers start sweating 🤣 but you need to know its quirks and how to use it https://a.co/d/915rWek

@via @rjackal what are its quirks?

@feliks @rjackal there are quite a few… needing the power source to provide specific voltages like 5.17V to correctly test TB4 cables for example, and knowing how to read the results it puts out and what tests matter on what product…
